Kahoot Testing

At the end of every class we do a Kahoot Quiz to test the kids on what they’ve learned in the lesson. It’s fun for the kids and motivates them to pay attention in class as they want the highest score. It also helps our tutor to keep track of what topics your child is struggling to grasp.

Curriculum Plan

We focus on getting the basics right, and then challenging our students with word problems.

6th Class

The goal of the 6th class is to get our students ready for Secondary School Maths. We recap our 5th class curriculum at the start. We move on to harder topics, such as problem-solving and basic Algebra.

  • Basic Algebra
  • Area and Volume
  • Multiplying and Dividing
  • Fractions

5th Class

The goal of the 5th class is to build on the basic fundamentals of Maths. We start with making sure students are comfortable with the basics of numbers. Our 5th Class course covers:

  • Place Value
  • Adding and Subtracting
  • Multiplying and Dividing
  • Fractions
  • Word Problems.

4th Class

For our 4th class students, we start by practising basic operations (adding, subtracting, multiplying). We then move onto basic word problems involving operations. The goal for our 4th classes is to get students ready for the step-up to 5th and 6th class Maths.

3rd Class

Our 3rd class curriculum makes Maths fun for our students. We foster a love for problem-solving. We take away the “fear of Maths”. Furthermore, we start by bringing students back to basics. We start learning and practicing basic operations (adding and subtracting). We then move onto basic word problems involving operations.

The Drumcondra Tests

Mother and Student

The Drumcondra Tests have changed in recent years and become more complex. They have become less ‘mathsy’ and more ‘wordy’. In other words, long paragraphs and stories before the maths question itself. Our classes help students to apply maths to real world problems so that they’re ready for the Drumcondras. If you want to read more about how the Primary School Maths curriculum has changed, read my post here.

FAQ’s

Is it a 1-1 grind?

Your grind will feel like a 1-1 grind.

The student can only see is the teacher. They interact only with the teacher. The teacher will talk to them infrequently, both in the class and in the chat.

What age group do you teach?

We offer our primary school classes to students in 3rd, 4th, 5th, & 6th class.

It doesn’t matter what their maths ability is or how many topics they’re struggling with, we’ll help them out.

How do you measure progress?

We provide in-class testing to see how each student is coping with every topic.

Your child’s results are available for you to view after each class and we will also provide you with regular updates via email/Whatsapp.

How long is each class?

Our primary school classes run for about 40-45 minutes.

They’re kids at the end of the day and school is already long enough, so we don’t expect them to focus for more than that length of time.

What if my child has a learning difficulty?

Don’t worry, our tutors are well-equipped to teach children of all learning abilities and levels.

We’ve been teaching for years now and have dealt with hundreds of kids with learning difficulties. We take our time with them and make sure they get the extra attention that they need.

What’s the cost of the program?

€99 Per Month

This gives you access to 4 classes per week and our recordings. Plus, your first class is free and you can cancel at any time.

  • Classes for Students from 3rd to 6th Class
  • Recordings of Classes Avaialble
  • Top Class Tutors
Do you follow the school curriculum?

Yes, we do. Most schools do the same topic at the same time of the year. We match that teaching plan.

What’s unique about our system is the fact that we offer unlimited classes each week. Each week we will be teaching two different topics. So you have choice in what you would like to study.
